What We Can Learn Ancient Philosophy
Self-development is about more than just reading a few books on the topic. Ancient Greek and Roman philosophers show us it is a way of life – a daily practice – which involves asking the difficult questions of how we should live, both as individuals and as a society.
What you can do:
Keep a journal of your own behavior, updating it every evening.
When you wake up the next day you’ll be able to review your faults and accomplishments and try to improve further on them during the course of the day. This will not only keep you on a path of continuous improvement, but you may also start to notice patterns in your behavior and find root causes for them.
Learn through imitation.
You should surround yourself with people you find admirable and inspiring. Before you know it, you’ll start to develop the same character traits that you admire in those people.
Remember: life is but a flash of light in the infinite darkness of the universe.
You should therefore never forget the importance of the present moment. Each breath, each conversation and each bite of food could potentially be your last, so savor it.
